I just bought the pink Zainos Bros. wax for clear coats.... Havent used it yet but it came highly recommended by Offshoredrillin. I have used the blue Zainos on my cars and boats and it worked AMAZING!!! You might have the wrong pad... sounds like you need a finishing pad for the swirl marks.
PM Offshoredrillin....or GlassDave... they are the experts.

I have used the black foam pad with excellent results but as always, make sur the pad is CLEAN and fairly new, inside w/o sun or dust moving around ,paint or clear is cured throughout (hopefully not Imron or AwlGrip) min 3000rpm, but don't overheat. I use a spray bottle w/ distilled water (tap water has mineral contaminants that will CUT) to keep surface cool when appropriate. The others suggest polishes that I haven't used...yet. G$
